Hi All,
Here is my take on Bad Moon Rising. I made a couple of blunders and I made a couple embellishments. Thanks again @JT for starting this challenge. I’m really enjoying it!

)Great job again! I could feel your inner groove on this for sure. You have a good natural rhythm. My only tip for next time is to try to have the bass louder in the mix. I think you had it similar to the original mix, but since we’re doing this for bass tracks mainly, crank that sucker up.

Very good job @TK-421! Well done!
Question… Does it affect your playing tapping your right leg and moving the entire bass up and down?

Great job @JerryP. I’d say you have an unconventional fretting technique, but it works for you. 
Sounded spot on to me.
Also great job @TNKA36 - the only thing I would say is, to me, I just wish the bass was louder in the mix. Points for authenticity tho.
Great job as well @TK-421 - I like the descending bit you added at the end.
Cheers to you all - well done.

@Jazzbass19 Thanks, Joe! I’ve fallen in love with this bass; it’s a MIJ Geddy Lee signature.
@JT Thank you! I’ve only been playing bass for 1 year but I’ve been playing the drums for many, many years… so that helps 
Agreed I need to crank up the bass! I always get a little self-conscious when the bass is up too high!
@JerryP Thanks, Jerry! That’s so funny… I didn’t realized that the whole bass was moving like that I’m so used to moving my legs from drumming it’s just second nature!
@skydvr Thank you! It seemed like the bass line needed just a little flourish at the end.
@John_E john Thanks, John! I’m using Dunlop flats and I had my bass tone at about 50% “on”; my amp (Ampeg BA-210) was: bass 5.5, mids: 4.5, treble: 4.5, with the “Ultra Low and Ultra High” buttons engaged. I’ve heard great things about Labella flats… I’ll have to check them out!

Hi Guys,
Please find the link below for the corrected version of Bad Moon Rising.
I wasn’t paying attention to the written music and played natural C’s & E’s instead of the correct Sharpened notes.
So I just re recorded it again using the Stingray, and increased the volume in the mixing of the track.
Its all good practice, 
Hope this one sounds better,
Cheers Brian
